Abstract: The concept of partial synchrony in a distributed system is introduced. Partial synchrony lies between the cases of a synchronous system and an asynchronous system. In a synchronous system, there is a known fixed upper bound /X on the time required for a message to be sent from one processor to another and a known fixed upper bound on the relative speeds of different processors.- In.an asynchronous system, no fixed upper bounds /X and exist. In one version of partial synchrony, fixed... (Update)
